"Sleep When We're Dead" lyrics

The night is getting late, the crowd's headed home
It's just you and me girl on the lake shore
I know I just met you but I can't let you go
Forget about your friends, baby, I'll drive you home (Yeah!)

I'll set you on the tailgate, we'll take it nice and slow
I know it ain't your style, but I won't tell a soul, no

I know you gotta wake up for that 9 to 5
But what's the point of living girl
If you don't feel alive?

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
Pour another drink, turn up that song 'bout
Small town lovers, hot summer night
Midnight dancing in the headlights
Some day we might regret leaving that love out by the lake
If you're getting tired honey, we'll put that thought to bed
But we can sleep when we're dead

Put your pretty arms around me, now get in nice and close
Whisper in my ear what you'd like to know
Now you can tell me bout your family or tell me bout your day
Or our lips can do the talking, let's listen baby what do you say

I know it's kinda crazy for a Tuesday night
But sometimes a good thing don't need time

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
Pour another drink, turn up that song 'bout
Small town lovers, hot summer night
Midnight dancing in the headlights
Some day we might regret leaving that love out by the lake
If you're getting tired honey, we'll put that thought to bed

With a smile she pulled me to water
Them southern girls, man, they just don't get any hotter
I said, "No girl, got on my good jeans"
She looked at me boy like "What do you mean?"

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
Jump on in, let's have a little fun
Small town lovers, hot summer nights
Out here swimming in the moonlight
Some day we might regret leaving this love out by the lake
But no matter what you do, don't forget what we said
We can sleep when we're dead
We can sleep when we're dead, aw yeah
We can sleep when we're dead
